The DAMA/LIBRA signal: an induced modulation effect?

R. S. James, K. Rule, E. Barberio +36

The persistence of the DAMA/LIBRA (DAMA) modulation over the past two decades has been a source of great contention within the dark matter community. The DAMA collaboration reports…

Cosmogenic production of Ar in the context of the LUX-ZEPLIN experiment

J. Aalbers, D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi +205

We estimate the amount of Ar produced in natural xenon via cosmic ray-induced spallation, an inevitable consequence of the transportation and storage of xenon on the Earth's…
